Today we went to the Culture & Ethnology centre - WAY cool! Info about all the tribes and sub tribes in Laos, their cultural heritage, their crafts and oral traditions.
Then home for Bray to pack his bag - we head to Phonsavan tomorrow, Roni will pack in the AM. Also time for Bray to have some ibuprofen+paracetamol as the back still paining him.
Headed off to explore the other side of Phou Si (sacred hill) after 4pm - Bray forgot the playing csrds :-( So we ended up playing knucklebones with some stones we found and 'pub crawling' betweem Hive, the 'cat bar'(had a ginger cat who befriended us), Lao Lao bar and Utopia.
Utopia is crazy - down some dark Luang Prabang alleys but it has a beach volleyball court, deck overlooking the river, big screen and much more!! Not only that but when we walked in and started chatting to a guy at the bar - turned out to be the owner and good chats!!
Then we walked home around the hill via the night market for spring rolls and donuts....yum!
We blew the budget a smidge and did the Falang (foreigner) thing but it was fun just this once!!
